How would you use coaxial output in dx90? I am trying to use it for external system (home audio/car audio) since it has highest output (spec-sheet)

There is a 1/8" line out jack, as well as a digital coaxial with an included cable. The line out works splendidly for aux input on cars, but I haven't tried the coaxial output. Frankly, since the coaxial bypasses the internal DACs, I won't be using it. The internal DACs are *why* you'd buy a player like this.

You would use it into a Digital Input on an AVR or Surround Processor. I am not aware of car units that have this type of input but even if they did I would not use it as the DAC inside the DX90 will be better.

It is a digital coaxial output then it has to be connected to an external dac

The short answer is no. However, it does have an orange 3/4 coaxial input and output. If your amplifier has an S/PDIF output, then you should use that to connect to the coaxial input (which would give you high resolution audio). Otherwise, you will need to get an analog (RCA) to digital (coaxial) converter/adapter. It is important to note if the aux output is mono or dual, because the converter or adapter must correspond to this. These range in price from $2-40, with the adapters being the cheapest and easiest to use.

I need this ability as well as I need to daisy chain the audio output to another amp. There definitley is no secondary digital audio out, so if someone who has this unit could see if the SA-CD or Video 1 audio outputs work for all input sources, that would be great. This is the only thing keeping me from buying this unit. Thanks.

I agree with Andrew. Get a 90* RCA adapter. Amazon sells these also, and they are not expensive. They are sold as DB Link right angle adapters. Have used these myself, and they work great. Hope this helps!

I got this to do the same and it appears that it did not work for ME going from my 2012 Mitsubishi 92" DLP 3D R.P big-screen Digital Coaxial to RCA (Red,White output ) inputing it to my new Samsung Home Theater system 3D-Blue-ray and I still got no sound.... My next try is the Digital coaxial converter to Optical input on the Home Theater, I hope this helps you. I wish us both luck.. Greg

Well...if you're not an über purist audiophile you may get away with it. I have these babies coupled with a paradigm milleniaone sub. I have a n external uDAC 3 connected to my computer and unused its coaxial output on another DAC (FiiO) to connect that to my subwoofer. Not pretty but it works. I love these speakers and even if you use a 3.5mm jack, that connection is converted to digital and then to analog again. In the future I'll upgrade my FiiO DAC to something better but for now I highly recommend it.

Looks like you only have digital audio out so you will need to buy Orei DA21 Optical SPDIF/Coaxial Digital to RCA or other converter. The Orei is what I bought and it works great.

No, you will need a product that converts coaxial output to optical input, C2G / Cables to Go 40018 Coaxial to Optical Digital Audio Converter (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002J2MV4/ref=cm_cd_asin_lnk)

There are many adapters in the marketHere is one :Digital Optical Coaxial Toslink Signal to Analog Audio Converter Adapter RCA L/RYou can get it on amazon or ebay

All inputs and outputs that I have used are RCA type jacks and pin jacks. I have not tried coaxial.

I haven't tested the analog output yet. I'm using the digital coaxial output which sound very good.

Anyone who would ask this question should not be tinkering with the insides of their computer. OK, I got lured in by Martin's comments about 7.1 sound. First off, get some local help. Not going to explain what coaxial is. Yes your recvr has two coaxial inputs so this card is applicable. See my post attesting to 5.1 sound, & curious whether 7.1 works also. Put a blue ray disk in your blue ray computer player, & find out. Thank us for the help by publishing your results.

Depends what hook ups you have. On my Visio, I plugged the coax cable converter to my TV, then the headphone jack looking end from the hub plugs into the other end of the converter. I hope that makes sense.... I dont know all the technical terms. :)

The cable you have shown is a sub woofer cable which is designed for the low level sounds (Base) and the Digital Coaxial is for all other surround sound channelsfor maximum surround sound connection. I have them both and they are fantastic cables. Mediabridge cables are incredibly priced and the quality of the cables are great. I don't think you will find a better cable for less.The back of your Blu-ray or cable box you will see Digital Coax out and on your receiver or sound bar you will see Digital Coax input, they are the female RCA Orange connections.

I thought it was the square input, as well. Thanks for this tip, and it works great. Sharp wanted to charge me $28 to answer this question. The thing that threw me was that the manual refers to the output as coaxial. It is simply takes a single RCA cable. Wonder what that square connection is all about?

How are you hooking up the rest of the channels? Via 5.1 in the motherboard? TOSLINK (digital/optical)? Explain your setup in detail and I can probably help you out.

I'm using mine with a conventional component stereo system, no DAC. Mine is connected directly to my preamp. If you plan to use it with your computer, I think using a DAC between the computer and the Magni will really improve the sound, but I think the Magni will work without it.
